A Buddhist beach sanctuary between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam has been named the top rising destination of 2015 by TripAdvisor, in a new list that features unheralded travel hotspots.

Topping the list is Da Nang, Vietnam, which saw the greatest increase in positive feedback and interest from the TripAdvisor community, year-over-year.

Above and beyond its luxury hotel-lined beaches, the city is renowned for being a hotbed of Vietnamese cuisine with authentic local dishes like fish ball noodle soup, fried chicken wings in fish sauce.

TripAdvisor visitors also recommend Marble Mountains, a cluster of five limestone and marble hills with peaks, caves, tunnels and temples.
